Cow Poetry - Gregory Richard Barden's Blog

About Gregory Richard Barden
(Show Details...)
Bloggers Photo

Welcome to my page!

I am a man of many interests - TOO many, I think, lol - and because of that I never gave writing the attention I should have when I was young. I started writing poetry in December of 2016, and joined Poetry Soup at the same time. I am currently working on an R&B/Soul album for a major label, so, as has usually been the case, poetry does not get the time I'd like to give it, (though I plan to change that in the future, and write a book-or-two, a sci-fi novel and an autobiography) ...

I like to incorporate classic styles and phrasing into a modern frame when I write poetry, and try to cover a wide range of genres, but I enjoy the darkly sensual the most, despite its limited audience. I hope you'll give my rather unusual style a chance, read a piece-or-two, and leave a comment, if you'd be so kind. I also hope you'll visit my music web site as well, (at the following address under my moniker "Bahku") - mostly (very) old recordings there, but also a snippet of the first single coming, and more new stuff soon!

www.bahku.com

Thanks for stopping by my page - blessings!

Ha ha I have seen this before and loved it. I wrote a poem ages ago about cows and their fences. What a coincidence/ https://www.poetrysoup.com/poem/cow_decorators_471440

Brings back painful memories Greg because in grammar school I unwittingly peed on an electric cow fence ... never did it again!
